    Birdbander had an extra tip section so he got one of the butt sections and I'll retip the other one. Thanks for the input.

    Agrees. I would think braid would be the culprit before monofilament . Either way if I was worried about new sections doing the same thing I would replace the tip with ceramic inserted ones. JM2C

    Tip Tops are super cheap if that's all your buying. Very easy to install too. Next fly rod conversion I do I will post the process. I buy all my rod building & repair stuff from The Mudhole Mud Hole — Your #1 Resource For Custom Rod Building Tools & Supplies!

    Quality Tip Top feature you want to look for is one made with the frame reinforcement shaped to reduce line wrap from snagging on it on windy days.

    I have been using BGJP rods for 20 years and never had that problem.
